Don't be so quick to kill Cookie.. eat the food he throws for a *massive* buff. Especially helpful for lower levels.

However there may be a glitch.. because Cookie came out and attacked before I received the quest.

I was running my level 12 Priest through Deadmines with my level 80 Druid. With the Druid, I initially picked up the first quest, The Foreman, but abandoned it because my Priest was not high enough (level 15 requirement) and figured I would come back and do them both together.

When my Priest entered the Mast Room, the quest The Carpenter was automatically offered, even though he does not meet the level requirements and does not have the Stormwind Communicator Mk. II, yet my Druid got no quest.

Upon entering the Goblin Foundary area, the same thing happened with the quest The Machination; offered to my ineligible Priest just for walking through the door, but not to my eligible Druid.

Once walking onto the dock in the Ironclad Cove area, I was given the quest The Admiral, but upon completion, I was NOT given the follow-up quest, The Defias Kingpin.

I ran through the dungeon again, this time doing the quest line with my Druid, starting from the beginning, and was given every quest normally as I progressed through the dungeon, without incident.

TL;DR - Even if you are below level 15, it seems you can still do every quest in this chain except the first and the last.

-- SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT THIS FIGHT --

Cookie also throws "spoiled" food types on the ground, which, when eaten, give you a stacking Nature damage debuff. So be careful about what food you eat after picking it up off the ground (which goes without saying, I suppose).

Reminds me of the "Found Cake" fetched by your dog in Dragon Age: Origins. "I'm not eating any Found Cake!"

If you forget to turn this quest in before leaving your party and being transported out (like I did), you can run back into the instance (the old school way!). Horatio Laine will be at the beginning of the instance right after you zone in and there are no unfriendly mobs to deal with to get to him.

Cookie came out and attacked before I got the quest, after accepting it, I waited for 10 minutes for Cookie to rerez but no luck.Had to reset and go through again.

The Defias Kingpin

Description

Hello there, <name>. I've heard a great deal about you. Listen closely, you're only going to have one solid shot at this.

The new Defias Kingpin must be inside the hut orchestrating this entire operation. I want you to go inside and take her down, for the sake of the hundreds of innocent people the organization her father started has killed and terrorized.

I'm shocked that she would let you get so close to her domain without fleeing and waiting until more favorable conditions, but it seems we're in luck.

You very well may have saved all of Stormwind with your efforts here today, <name>. Vanessa may still be out there, but she is an insignificant threat now that the Juggernaut will be placed under our careful watch. Thank you.
